Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 – Graphite
Darkly demure
The Graphite variant of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 comes in both 40mm and 44mm case options. You get a simple charcoal black watch band with this color. It’s a classic black option that’s sure to look good with almost any outift.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 – Silver
Brilliant shimmer
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a pretty picture in Silver, and so is the plain white strap it comes with. Whether you choose the 40mm or 44mm option, it looks good in both. However, Silver isn’t as versatile as Graphite when it comes to matching with outfits.
Here’s how you should choose the right Galaxy Watch 8 color for yourself
Settling on one of the two Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 color variants isn’t a tough call to make. You either go for Silver or Graphite, and the watch bands are secondary. Since the bands can always be swapped out to suit the outfit or occasion anyway, don’t focus on them when making your choice.
I highly recommend opting for the colorway that matches the majority of your clothes and accessories. For example, I prefer to wear gold or rose gold accessories, so a Silver Galaxy Watch 8 would clash awfully with most of my jewelry. That’s why I’d personally buy the Graphite variant of the Watch 8. I can always swap the straps to a golden metal link one to glam it up or make it look more elegant. Golden doesn’t look that bad with black. I’m sure you get the gist.
So, if your bracelets and clothes lean more towards a silvery aesthetic, you should get the Silver option instead. It’s going to be a thousand times easier to style.
